In the High Court in Sabah and Sarawak at Kuching today, Justice Datuk Linton Albert found in favour of Mohamad Rambli bin Kawi (“the Plaintiff”) to have acquired native customary rights over 65 parcels of land in Salak Land District, Kuching, Sarawak.
The Plaintiff’s legal counsel, Mr. Baru Bian, stated the decision as being very significant as it declares once again that the Malays are also accorded with native customary rights premised upon custom or adat, which is in accordance with the Sarawak Land Code. This is a victory to the natives of Sarawak who have been fighting for the further recognition of their rights over native customary land since the landmark case of Nor Anak Nyawai.
